OWB 11g on Linux 64-bit security problem

Hello guys,
Our database (11.1.0.7.0) is under Linux 64-bit. Is there any way to start embedded OWB (which is part of the database install) from a different OS user than the owner of the Oracle binaries ?
Due to the VERY slow response time, it is not practical for us to use an OWB standalone Windows version as a client to connect to the repository installed on Linux; so, the only option is to have the OWB client on the same machine as database. But this means to give developers access to the Linux box (using VNC), using the OS user who owns Oracle binaries; this is a very serious security threat, as they, for example, can connect as SYSDBA into db.
When we were using 10g (database + OWB), it was possible to install OWB on the same box as db, but in a different OS user (not in dba group) and to access design repository/control center. For 10g it was released a 64-bit version of OWB. It's not the case with 11g. Also, support told us that it isn't supported to use 32-bit OWB binaries installed on 64-bit Linux.
Any inputs are appreciated.
Regards.

I donot know whether i understood your problem correctly or not but.
i donot understant the point
But this means to give developers access to the Linux box (using VNC), using the OS user who owns Oracle binaries; this is a very serious security threat, as they, for example, can connect as SYSDBA into db."Previously, each Oracle Database utilized as a repository for this product required a user with SYSDBA privileges. Beginning in this release, this is no longer required. A schema OWBSYS is created while installing Oracle Database 11g Release 1 (11.1). OWBSYS holds the metadata which is divided into workspaces. To start using Warehouse Builder, you just need to create a new workspace. You do not need SYSDBA privileges"

  • Starting OBIEE 11g on Linux 64 bit

    Hi,
    I installed OBIEE 11g on Linux 64 bit and it worked fine after installation. I rebooted the system and I need to start it again.
    I am trying to run
    run-sa.sh
    run-saw.sh
    etc.
    but it looks like the scripts are broken:
    ./run-saw.sh: line 43: syntax error near unexpected token `('
    ./run-saw.sh: line 43: `ANA_INSTALL_DIR=$N($P(installLocation))'
    it looks like these scripts were not processed by the installer during installation, $N($P(installLocation)) should have been replaced by the installer with actual paths I assume.
    is there another way to start OBIEE?
    Thanks,
    Calin

    Are you sure you are running OBIEE 11g? YOu are meant to use those scripts any more in 11g. See this post:

    Hi,
    I have 64 bit linux and Oracle 11g installed but one of my applications is using 32-bit libraries.
    So i am thinking of copying the lib32 folder in ORACLE_HOME and paste the path in LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
    Will it work or not????
    If YES, i need the lib32 folder for Oracle 11g R2 on Linux 32 bit. Can someone please tell me from where can i download it?

  • Bad interpreter: Permission denied whn installin ORACLE 11g on linux 32 bit

    Hello All,
    I have a VMWare that i installed into it Oracle enterprise Linux 5 32 bit, i am trying to install Oracle 11g R2 on it, i have the .iso oracle file, l linked the CD/DVD drive of the VMware to the location of this ISO file, and i applied all the steps mentioned in this link : http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/11g/OracleDB11gR2InstallationOnEnterpriseLinux5.php
    i did: cd media and i found the runInstaller file but wen trying to run it: ./runInstaller i am facing the below :

    -bash: ./runInstaller: /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Permission denied
    your help is appreciated please.
    Regards,

    The problem is that gnome-mount will not give you execute rights on CD/DVD content. The solution is at the below link in the Tips section:
    Installing Oracle 11g R2 on Ubuntu 10 Howto
    Logout your current X-session and login as user Oracle
    Insert the Oracle Installation DVD
    Or from a remote terminal session:
    Insert the Oracle Installation DVD
    sudo umount /dev/sr0
    Create a new session as user Oracle
    ssh -Y oracle@server_address
    sudo mount /dev/sr0 /media
    /media/database/runInstaller
    If you see "runinstaller" instead of "runInstaller" you can try the following:
    sudo mount -o loop,norock /dev/cdrom /media
    more also here:
    runInstaller ".oui: No such file" / "bad interpreter: Permission denied"

  • OWB at Linux 64 Bit Environment

    Hi All,
    Iam new to Linux Environment.
    Our client is recently started updating OS from Windows to Linux.
    I would like to open Design centre in Linux server remotely from my desktop. Could you please provide steps?
    Regards,
    Ava

    Yes, you can run OWB client directly on the server.
    If you have a linux workstation, you can run Xwindows applications on server, and have the application window displayed on client!!! It is called X forwarding, and this is a feature that Xwindows had for years.
    Connect to your server using ssh with -X switch, eg.
    [alex@alex]$ ssh -X oracle@myserver
    once connected, go to the owb directory and run the client, which will display the application window on the CLIENT (your workstation), eg.
    [oracle@myserver ~]$ cd /oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/owb/bin/unix/
    [oracle@myserver unix]$ ./owbclient.sh
    This way requires no additional installation on your machine, but OWB running over ssh can be a bit laggy. However, it is very usable. You can try to speed up the connection by using a cypher that is somewhat less CPU intensive, ie arcfour. The login would be then:
    [alex@alex]$ ssh -c arcfour -X oracle@myserver
    Keep in mind, that running OWB client on the sever this way requires 500MB to 1GB of RAM more on the server (the client application is executing there).
    The other option to run OWB on an linux 64bit workstation is to install the OWB 64bit (if you want to run 11g you can install the complete database server software, which comes with OWB) and run it normally on your workstation. This effectively limits the distribution you can use to red-hat, centos or fedora.
    I'm running OWB 10.2 64bit on my fedora 64bit workstation for 2 years without any problems. It may not be certified, but runs without a glitch.
    Bye

  • Problem in OIM Installation in Linux-64 bit environment

    Hi,
    Components used
    1. Oracle Database11gR1
    2. Weblogic Application server 10.3.0(installed in non clustered mode)
    3. OIM 9.1.0.1
    Also ensured the above three are compatible.
    I'm facing problem at the end of OIM installation in RedHat Linux-64 bit environment.
    The error details in setup-weblogic.log file is given below
    ===================================
    setup-startscript:
    setup:
    [echo] Setting up weblogic for xellerate complete.
    [ant] Exiting /oracle/oimserver/xellerate/setup/weblogic-setup.xml.

    /oracle/oimserver/xellerate/setup/setup.xml:443: The following error occurred while executing this line:
    /oracle/oimserver/xellerate/setup/weblogic-setup.xml:196: Could not create task or type of type: wlst.
    Ant could not find the task or a class this task relies upon.
    This is common and has a number of causes; the usual
    solutions are to read the manual pages then download and
    install needed JAR files, or fix the build file:
    - You have misspelt 'wlst'.
    Fix: check your spelling.
    - The task needs an external JAR file to execute
    and this is not found at the right place in the classpath.
    Fix: check the documentation for dependencies.
    Fix: declare the task.
    - The task is an Ant optional task and the JAR file and/or libraries
    implementing the functionality were not found at the time you
    yourself built your installation of Ant from the Ant sources.
    Fix: Look in the ANT_HOME/lib for the 'ant-' JAR corresponding to the
    task and make sure it contains more than merely a META-INF/MANIFEST.MF.
    If all it contains is the manifest, then rebuild Ant with the needed
    libraries present in ${ant.home}/lib/optional/ , or alternatively,
    download a pre-built release version from apache.org
    - The build file was written for a later version of Ant
    Fix: upgrade to at least the latest release version of Ant
    - The task is not an Ant core or optional task
    and needs to be declared using <taskdef>.
    - You are attempting to use a task defined using
    <presetdef> or <macrodef> but have spelt wrong or not
    defined it at the point of use
    Remember that for JAR files to be visible to Ant tasks implemented
    in ANT_HOME/lib, the files must be in the same directory or on the
    classpath
    Please neither file bug reports on this problem, nor email the
    Ant mailing lists, until all of these causes have been explored,
    as this is not an Ant bug.

    Caused by: /oracle/oimserver/xellerate/setup/weblogic-setup.xml:196: Could not create task or type of type: wlst.
    Further, I have identified that the ant was unable to launch a custom web logic task, wlst.
    This custom task of web logic task is invoked by ant using the following script in <OIM_HOME>/xellerate/setup/weblogic-setup.xml.
    <target name="setup" depends="setup-startscript">
    <echo>Setting up weblogic for xellerate complete.</echo>

    <antcall target="stopServer"/>
    <antcall target="startServer"/>
    </target>
    Also I have ensured the all the environmental variables, JAVAOPTIONS, USER_MEM_ARGS, ANT_OPTS are properly set before installing OIM.
    I have tried several times but still getting the same error.
    Please help me to resolve this issue.
    Did anyone face this issue before??????

    I am not certain but when I was installing OIM 9.1.x with wls 10.3.0 on windows I had a failure too and it turned out I didn't create the wls domain user and group for OIM. The docs for OIM 9.1 does not talk about it so you may want to create this account and group and re-try the install. The steps are below:
    Log in to the WebLogic Admin Console using your new account by pointing a web browser to the following url:
    http://<hostname>:7001/console
    1. Select Security, then Realms, then myrealm, and then Groups from the navigation panel on the left.
    2. Select the Configure a new Group link in the Groups page.
    3. Enter User for the group name in the Name field under the General tab and optionally enter a description for the group.Click Apply.
    Note:
    The group name User is case-sensitive.
    4. Select Security, then Realms, then myrealm, and then Users from the navigation panel on the left.
    5. Select the Configure a new User link in the Users page.
    6. Enter Internal for the user name in the Name field under the General tab and optionally enter a description for the user.
    Note:
    The user name Internal is case-sensitive.
    7. Enter and confirm a password associated with the user name Internal and click Apply.
    8. Select the Groups tab.
    9. Add the User group to the list of Current Groups for the Internal user by selecting User from the list of Possible Groups and clicking the --> right arrow button. Click Apply.
    Please post back if it works,
    Thanks,

  • Problem installing OBIEE 11.1.1.6 on Linux 64-bit - redux

    I had posted an issue earlier about not being able to install the Software Only on my Linux 64-bit. That problem has not been solved, but this is a new (possibly related) issue.
    I created a brand new installation of Linux, with an Oracle 11gR2 database, and created the BI repositories using rcu for 11.1.1.6
    I then navigated to bishiphome/Disk1/install/linux64 and ran runInstaller.
    Everything looks fine, all the way up to Step 13 of 15, where the installer is supposed to start copying files. It "hangs up" at that point. The tests for adequate swap space and Temp space are passed:
    Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
    Checking Temp space: must be greater than 1536 MB. Actual 4578 MB Passed
    Checking swap space: must be greater than 500 MB. Actual 7999 MB Passed
    Checking monitor: must be configured to display at least 256 colors. Actual 16777216 Passed
    Preparing to launch Oracle Universal Installer from /tmp/OraInstall2013-04-03_12-13-01PM. Please wait ...
    It is running into an issue with a String Index out of bounds - Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -2

    So far, I have confirmed I am using a 64-bit compliant java:
    $> java -version:
    java version "1.6.0_43"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_43-b01)
    Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.14-b01, mixed mode)
    There is nothing installed in this box except the Linux OS, one single Oracle DB for me to install OBIEE, no WebLogic, nothing else.
    Any help will be appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Nick

    Well, I redownloaded all five zip files for Linux 64 bit, and completely deleted my old bishiphome.
    I then unzipped all five zip files into a brand new bishiphome, and retried the installation. This is still a Linux box with nothing on it but Linux, one Oracle 11gR2 database, rcu11.1.1.6, and attempting to install OBIEE 11.1.1.6.
    Same result.
    Still hangs at file copy, still has the same error message in the .out file.
    Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -2
    at java.lang.String.substring(String.java:1937)
    Any other ideas? This is getting really frustrating!

  • HOW TO INSTALL ODI 11g / OWB 11g  IN WINDOWS SERVER 2008 R2 (64 BITS)

    Hi everybody,
    I have a serious problem.
    Last week we buy a new server with Windows Server 2008 Std. R2 x64, for a new project. I tried to install the RDBMS Oracle 11g R2 (x64) without problems, but when i try execute the "Design Center" contents in OWB, show me the error: 0xc0000018
    Then, I´m thinking in install Oracle Data Integrator to solution it, but i`ve read that neither can install on 64 bits system... This is true?
    Somebdoy knows how can I install OWB 11g / ODI 11g in a Windows 2008 Server 64 bits?
    Thanks & Regards!

    OWB 11G Will have been installed with the database, it now ships with 11G.
    Check you are on a supported platform for design centre using the certification matrix.
    Quick google search for you regards 0xc0000018 :

  • Upgrade from 10G windows 32-bit to 11G linux 64-bit

    Hi,
    I am moving a 10g database on windows 32-bit environment to 11G linux 64-bit environment. I am using rman to restore the database on the new environment. The restore completes successfully after which when I open the database in upgrade mode and run utlirp.sql in order to migrate it from 32-bit to 64-bit I encounter the following error:
    create or replace package STANDARD AUTHID CURRENT_USER is -- careful on this line; SED edit occurs!

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    According to
    ID 757245.1 Can you Upgrade RDBMS and Convert From 32-bit to 64-bit Binaries Directly on Linux or Windows based Intel Platforms Using the Database Upgrade Assistant (DBUA)oracle does not support upgrading and changing the wordsize at the same time. A workaround is to upgrade it on the same platform and then move it to the new oS and change wordisize.

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how do I connect from Oracle 11g 11.1.0.7 on LINUX 64-bit machines to SQL Server 2000 DB please so I can set up a regular data extraction job to migrate data? Does this use products I am already licenced for under Oracle Enterprise Edition?
    Thanks,

    you must be not read it carefully.
    The gateway software is there, in the bottom.

        linux.x64_11gR1_gateways.zip (505,401,641 bytes) (cksum - 2593459988)  just download it.
    and this is how to install and configure

  • Is owb 11g r2,supported by 64 bit windows 2008 server

    is owb 11g ,r2 supported on 64 bit windows 2008 server.
    is it true that : OWB 11g,r2 is supported only for 32 bit windows 2008.

    There is no 64b client for windows at this time. You can check on Oracle for available downloads.

  • OWB 11g Problem in running Process flow

    I’ve build a process flow as described in “Getting Started with Oracle Warehouse Builder 11g”. But if I run the process flow I get a warning message “You have to deploy this object before running” followed by the error RTC-5170: The selected objects do not require deployment as they are all up to date in the Control Center.
    Therefore I’m not able to run the process flow. What’s wrong? It looks so easy in Getting Started but it doesn’t work.
    I’ve found two threads regarding this error from last year in this forum. But there is no solution for OWB 11g.
    Has anyone an advice for me?

    I've successfully installed OWF as described in Installation guide (all components are on the sam server).
    But when I deploy a workflow in OWB I get some errors. In the job details
    I find ORA-00942 and RPE-02053. It seems that the workflow repository is missing.
    Are there additional steps for creating a workflow repository?
    Or what is wrong? All installation logs (wf.log and workflow.log) are without errors and with success messages.
    Any idea?
